I agree, but it isn't a bad conpromise when it comes to responsiveness. But on balance I would go for gas, especially for a stir fry.The material prosperity of a nation is not an abiding possession; the deeds of its people are.

I 100% agree with you and I would prefer gas but the only problem is Gas doesnt go to the house as is the case in many houses in Germany, therefore if I have gas then I either fork out A LOT for pipes to be laid etc. Or have the chav style of things and a calor gas bottle in a cupboard with the guarantee it runs out midway through a sunday roast. The only feasible alternative is induction IMO.The proud owner of 125 Xeno Geek PointsComment

Although I seriously considered an AGA, even went to look at one but decided maybe when we move to the country, AGAs dont suit city houses.The proud owner of 125 Xeno Geek PointsComment

Most houses in rural areas of britain have calor gas. Without wishing to feed the trolls, I have a very large barn conversion, with 4 beds and lots of land, which uses 2 large calour gas bottles for cooking, and we go through maybe 2 every 18 months, and how it works, is that when one is empty, it uses the other one and warns you. It's fairly cheap too, as a large bottle costs only around £60.Originally posted by chef View PostI 100% agree with you and I would prefer gas but the only problem is Gas doesnt go to the house as is the case in many houses in Germany, therefore if I have gas then I either fork out A LOT for pipes to be laid etc. Or have the chav style of things and a calor gas bottle in a cupboard with the guarantee it runs out midway through a sunday roast.

I wouldn't knock it, and I think if you walked through the hamlets around here, you'd change your mind. You'd not, for instance, be able to see my gas bottles or oil tank.Comment
